Welcome!

Thanks for stopping by!

We are two house-loving DIYers now onto our second house. One of us has vision...and one has actual skills.

Design and working on our home are our major hobbies, whenever we have a few moments of free time not devoted to our daughter or jobs. We are hoping to share our ideas, triumphs and mistakes to help other DIYers and get new ideas from all of you!

The LAST room to redo - Dining Room

The dining room was the LAST room in the house we had not really touched yet, well minus me painting the hutch over last February break. It got a fresh skim coat to fix up all of the walls/ceiling, crown molding, and new paint.

The before picture - the last of the 3 main rooms that still had flesh on flesh paint/trim.

Brent has gotten pretty fast at scraping down the walls and skim-coating, but it's still a messy and time-consuming process.

The handsome handyman :)

The paint color is Concord Ivory. It looks LESS bright in person than it does in these photographs, but it is definitely a gold/yellow.
